gibson epiphone black beauty

Should I have an Epiphone Les Paul Black Beauty or Silverburst?
What are the main advantages and disadvantages of each? Ive played Gibson Explorer with a humbucker-2 and wanted to trade due to mobility problems (its very heavy in the case and I need somethat easily get to and from school) and please Do not tell me to buy an SG, I'm not looking. Also, if you have any Essential and basic specifications of them as the results of each repetition of each would be greatly appreciated.
